What type of maps do you carry when hiking in the backcountry.
Last summer while on a short (5 mile) backpacking trip I carried a 1:24,000 topo (from my Terrain Nav software), the USFS map of the Deschutes National Forest and loaded maps in my GPS.
Are there maps that you prefer? I like the maps from
www.mytopo.com.Do you cut the forest map down to save space/cut weight?
What would you carry?
